2% Take Brooklyn (#571)
The Denver Nuggets have played seven home games since Christmas Day. They’ve won exactly NONE of those seven by more than six points. Injury riddled Denver is NOT a team poised to cover many pointspreads in this price range.
These two teams played in Brooklyn earlier in January. Michael Porter Jr got revenge against his former team in a big way, with the Nets winning outright by double digits. I’m confident Porter and his teammates – even on a night where Brooklyn is shorthanded –will play hungry, looking for a similar result on Porter’s lone appearance in Denver this season.
Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez ripped his team following the loss against the Clippers last weekend, and they battled Phoenix down to the wire to open this road trip, responding to Fernandez’s message. “Right now, one out of three games ... as far as being competitive, is not good enough. We should be three for three competitive, whether you win or lose…..We have to decide who we want to be, and it starts with everybody's focus and effort. We're obviously going to need (to) compete at a certain standard.” Expect the Nets to live up to Fernandez’s ‘competing’ standard here. Take the Nets.

This is a free play on Under.
I've been trying to tell anyone who will listed that scoring is way down in the NBA, but apparently bookmakers either don't care or they are careful not to overreact. Thunder are the #1 scoring defense in the NBA, and they are coming off back to back games posting scores that remind us of the 1990s. They beat New Orleans 104-95 and lost 103-101 to the Raptors. They have gone under in seven of their last 10 versus Minnesota, and both games last year fell short of a combined 220 points.

Former Nugget Michael Porter Jr. will play in Denver for the first time since being traded this past offseason as the Nets and Nuggets go head-to-head tonight. Although these two have faced off in Brooklyn once this season, Porter Jr. will now have a chance to show Denver fans that trade was a mistake. The Nets forward scored 27 points in their meeting on January 4th on 8-17 from the field as we’ll take him to go over 25.5 points in Denver tonight. Aside from a hiccup against the Clippers in LA two games ago, Porter Jr. has been scoring relatively efficiently averaging 45% shooting from the field on 19 shot attempts per game in January. He scored 36 of the Nets’ 102 points in a four-point loss at Phoenix last time out as the team will play without all of Cam Thomas, Egor Demin, Noah Clowney and Zaire Williams tonight which combined they score roughly 48 points per game. Porter Jr. will have to make up for at least some of that scoring himself with Denver giving up the ninth most points per game to opposing small forwards across the last 15 days. In a revenge spot against his former team on the road let’s take Porter Jr. to be the top (and possibly only) scoring threat for the Nets against a Nuggets team sitting bottom ten in defensive efficiency on the season.

(565) Houston Rockets at (566) Atlanta Hawks: Spread
Houston Rockets -3.5 (-110)
General Trends:
Away Teams Trend: The statistic highlights that away teams, as favorites or small underdogs off a loss and playing with no rest, have a record of 88-41 (68%) ATS when facing a team coming off a win as an underdog. This trend suggests a favorable scenario for the away team in this matchup.
Houston Rockets Performance:
Home Record: The Rockets have been strong at home, boasting a 16-4 straight up record. This reflects their ability to perform well in familiar surroundings.
Bounce-back Performance: Following previous home losses, the Rockets are 3-0 ATS, covering by an average of 9.7 points per game. This shows that they tend to respond well after a defeat at home, making them a dangerous opponent after losing their last game.
Atlanta Hawks Performance:
Current Form: The Hawks have won and covered in 4 straight games, including an impressive upset against the Celtics in Boston. This momentum can boost their confidence, although beating elite teams doesn't always predict success against other opponents.
Underdog Performance: Atlanta’s record as an underdog after a win is 2-4 ATS, indicating they have struggled to maintain their momentum as a favorite in the subsequent game following an upset.
Rest and Performance: The Hawks have played two games in which both teams had both rest, but they failed to cover in either by a significant margin (30 points combined).

NBA Betting Picks Today, NBA Predictions Tonight
One of the most refreshing aspects of NBA picks free from WagerTalk is the frequency with which they're offered. These are not AI picks that are just churned out nonsensically a week in advance. These NBA picks free that are made available for today and for tonight's NBA games reflect the most recent news, injury reports, trades, matchup evaluations and much more. They're fresh, they're frequent, and they're spectacular.
Free Against the Spread NBA Picks
ATS NBA bets are some of the most popular choices for NBA bettors. They're also among the most difficult. NBA bettors, however, and NBA experts, can sometimes find a nice edge in ATS NBA betting - maybe a line doesn't totally take into account some statistics or maybe bettors have shifted the line incorrectly.
Maybe two teams match up in such a way that the spread is moot. Only you can find out by getting your picks free for NBA bets from us
Free NBA MoneyLine Predictions
NBA moneyline betting picks are free and common from WagerTalk. You'll see them every day from WagerTalk's team. NBA moneyline betting could not be simpler. And makes your watching of the games pretty straightforward - you simply pick the NBA team that you think is going to win. A heavy favorite won't see a generous payout, but an underdog will.
Total Points, Over/Under Free NBA Predictions
Grab WagerTalk's free NBA over under picks daily. An over under pick simply refers to whether or a team or combined total of teams points will end up being more (over) or less (under) than the designated line for that game.
If an over/under line for an NBA game is 201.5, and you place a bet on the over, you need the teams to combine for 202+ points. It's that simple. Over/under betting can also comes in halves and sometimes even quarters - and you can get longer odds if you select a less likely over/under line offered by a sportsbook.
If two high-scoring NBA teams match up, you could very well see some pretty extravagantly high overs - but that doesn't mean it's not worth taking a look - but check with our NBA expert handicappers first for their suggested free NBA picks!
Props & Parlay NBA Betting Picks - Free NBA Picks & Parlays
WagerTalk gives you free NBA player props and team props throughout the year. The undisputed online leader in NFL and MLB player props, WagerTalk's expert prop bettors apply that knowledge to NBA props as well.
Is there a tasty NBA player prop out there that you haven't noticed? Maybe a not particularly good at rebounding guard is playing against a team that bombs away from long-range and bricks hard. Maybe that player's over/under rebounds line is something like 3. Well, in this matchup, he's got a good shot at knocking well past that 3 rebounds, making him a great NBA player prop pick - WagerTalk can find that prop.
Guaranteed NBA Picks & NBA Hot Picks Today
Any premium NBA package purchased from WagerTalk has the option of making it a guaranteed NBA pick - which simply means you can insure your purchase.
NBA Hot picks today and tonight are covered in both premium paid picks and NBA free picks - our NBA expert picks take a look at matchups that might be misconstrued by the current odds and show you ways to take advantage of potential mismatches.
